STYLE CONCEPT DENTISTRY
Conscious sedation at the Marenco Dental Clinic
Conscious sedation is an advanced anaesthesiologic technique that allows patients to undertake dental treatments completely relaxed and pain-free. The patient remains awake, conscious and able to collaborate with the dentist, but free of anxiety and tension.
Who is it for?
Conscious sedation is ideal for:
▸ Patients who fear or are anxious about dental procedures. It helps people who are very stressed to manage the interventions.
▸ Those with a low pain threshold or with particular sensitivity.
▸ Long or complex interventions that require constant collaboration.
▸ Patients who suffer from dental phobia: it is a fundamental resource to reduce fear and anxiety.
Advantages of conscious sedation
▸ Safe: during the whole session the doctor checks the patient’s vital parameters (heartbeat, blood pressure, oxygen levels) to ensure their safety.
▸ Comfort: reduces stress, anxiety and discomfort during treatments.
▸ Collaboration: patients remain conscious, hearing and perceiving what is going on, and able to participate actively when necessary.
▸ Quick recovery: after treatment the return to normal daily activities is immediate.
▸ Reduced risks: reduces the risks associated with general anaesthetic.
Inhalation sedation
The patient breathes a mixture of oxygen and nitrous oxide through a face mask, for an immediate and controlled effect.
Nitrous oxide is eliminated from the body in a few minutes simply through breathing.
The approach is personalised
At the Marenco Dental Clinic every treatment with conscious sedation is planned based on the individual requirements of the patient, guaranteeing maximum safety, peace of mind and comfort during the dental procedures.
